1) Adventure is 24 year-old North Carolina native and recent Baltimore transplant Benny Boeldt. His ultra-melodic synth compositions pull from his earliest exposure to the 16-bit soundtracks of the Sega Genesis video game catalog. But it’s not just retro video game music. Mix in the kitschy Moogy sound of Hot Butter’s “Popcorn”, the saturated disco-theatrics of late seventies electro-pop acts like Sparks and Yellow Magic Orchestra, and a penchant for Eastern European diminished scales and you’ve come pretty close to Adventure’s accelerated baroque sound.
Adventure is an advanced, dance-floor friendly take on the music of early video gaming. Let the epic quest for the master sword begin!
2) Adventure is a progressive rock band from Norway.
Band members (working at album Beacon of Light):
Odd-Roar Bakken - Keyboards, Synths, Piano, Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar and Mandolin
Terje Flessen - Lead Guitars, Acoustic Guitars, Rhytm Guitars and Bass
Vebjørn Moen - Lead and Backing Vocals
Henning Mjøen - Lead and Backing Vocals
Eva Cecilie Bjerkhoel - Backing Vocals
Magnus Forsberg - Drums
Kristian Resell - Drums
Mari Haug Lund - Flute, Backing Vocals
Cathrine Larsen - Backing Vocals
Bente Fossnes - Backing Vocals

I really like this new one. The cheese and nostalgia are still there. Totally thought I had outgrown Adventure but my love is still there.
